Grommet Team

At the heart of it, we’re a bunch of regular folks with a passion for finding Grommets; wonderful products--with interesting stories--that people would love to know about. We’re independent—no one pays us to select a product. In fact, the best thing is, lots of people help us by sharing their own favorite discoveries. In that way, our “team” is anyone who believes that we can make a difference by celebrating the useful, innovative, and beautifully crafted Grommets we collectively discover. And by the way, between us, we have 21 children…we get it.

Got a Grommet you think we should see? Tell us about it.

Jules Pieri Founder and CEO "My job is to see that we have the right people, ideas, attitudes, snacks, and sometimes--fresh flowers--at Daily Grommet. Heck-that's pretty much what I do at home, too." Jules' Blog		Joanne Domeniconi Chief Discovery Officer "I get to lead the whole Grommet discovery effort; it helps that so many people give us fascinating product ideas. Right now I feel like I'm reinventing myself...scary but fun."		Deborah Pine COO "There's a lot that goes on behind the scenes at Grommet, and it's my job to make sure it all runs smoothly. I'm thrilled to be pitching in alongside good friends."
Jim Rice Logistics "I make sure that the Grommets get delivered and that our customers get treated the way I'd like to be treated. I’m having a blast becoming the paint-speckled 'Man in the Arena'."		Jeanne Connon Grommet Development and Marketing "I herd Grommets … making sure that great products see the light of day. Guess I've always had a knack for organizing, whether it's my son's Legos or a weekend getaway!"		Jen Lockwood Grommet Research and Discovery "I'm elbow to elbow with Joanne finding those Grommet ideas and learning their true stories. Kind of like a reporter. I'm always on the hunt, even in my sleep."
Barbara Gordon Community "I have my ear to the ground to understand what Grommets get people excited, what women care about, and learning what we should do next. Beats marketing root beer."		Sara Pacelle Business Development "I love spreading the Grommet message!! Our team has real pros and super fun people. It's a dream job! Now if I could just lose a few lbs..."

Grommet Video Set and Production

We shoot our videos right in our offices, surrounded by past, present, and future Grommets. Jules and Joanne made the Grommet sculpture on the wall. If you watch our videos regularly, you’ll see that we’ve made a few sculptures, with different moods and materials. For us, those personal creations, strung on sturdy Maine birch branches, represent an improbable combination of desirable qualities; utility, style, nature, and craft. Just what we like to see in Grommets.

Would you like to send us a Grommet sculpture? We’d love to make videos with it behind us, and we would tell people you made it. It only needs to hang off one of our birch branches and be a span of about seven feet. Send us an inquiry to sculptures@dailygrommet.com. Give us a sense of your idea and we’ll get back to you about next steps.

Our videos are ably produced and edited by Jesse Buckley and Owen Mack of coBRANDit. They make us look and sound better than we do in real life, fo' sure. Except on bad hair and tongue-tied days. Then there really is nothing they can do but scrape by with what we give them. And make those videos really, really short
